On Tuesday Oen. John A. Logan, was re-elected United States Senator for six years from tlio 4th of March. 1885, receiving 103 votes,being all the votes of the Republican Senators and Rep* resentatlves, giving IIIm a clear Mid unquestioned majority of one. This has been a long and trying struggle, and the outcome Is such that all loyal people can rejoice. If there ever was a time when the oountry ne«d«*d snch men as Gen. Logan In the Halle of the Senate that time Is now. Let the peo pie rejoice tha*. the Republican party and Gen. Logan have triumphed. |&*Tlie administration is begin­ ning te get away from store and out among the breakers, so that smooth sailing ne longer attends it. There are from 40 to 4<K> applicants for every place, and whenever an appointment Is made, frem 39 to399 political aspirants grumble with all the emphasis that the Democratic vocabulary will per­ mit of. This takes not a little from the administration's happiness, and adds not a little to its troubles. To be Suro it could not be expected that It would be able to please all, though nwo'i better selections might often be made. The most notable mistakes in lite mattor of appointments have Wen made In tlie State Department, and they have raised such a thunder about Secretary Bayard's ears as to lead that official wish that he were back in the Senate again. The Democratic party is sure to blunder whether in or out of power, and the next meeting of Congress is liktly to find it in a peck of trouble, and the people entirely dissatisfied with it. tfTThe trees are budding and the sward has an emerald hue; yet, despite the sunshine, the air is unusually chill, and fires and spring overcoats are still in demand. The weather is, Indeed, remarkable, but with news of the snow storm in Michigan, of the hauling of cordwood over twelve Inches of snow in Maine, ef heavy frosts in New Jar icy and Indiana, of Southern fields of tobacco sprinkled with snow flakes and of Ice bound lakes and wide areas of snow. It would be more remarkable if we had warm weather here, Florida Is also experiencing anomalous weath­ er. The heated term has come much earlier taan usual, and clouds of mos­ quitoes and sand flies are said to over­ shadow the Peninsular Stale. The coolest spot, however, in the oountry at the present time seems to bj in the District of Columbia. Many visitors to Washington return home chDled tnd disheartened. A few apparently saga­ cious statesmen give the city a wide berth. Bat the weather even at the capital most change. It will undoubt­ edly be much hotter there by and by. To the Republican Votcrt of the Twelfth Judicial Circuit: At the Republican Judicial Conven­ tion, held at Elgin en May 1, the Hon. IsaaeG. Wilson, Clark W. Upton and Charles Kellum, the present able and experiened judges or this circuit, were nomlnatodlfor re-election. The elec­ tion takes place on Monday, June 1. The Central ^Committee wish to im­ press upon every Republican through­ out the district the great Importance of going to the polls, aud seeing that his neighbors also go and vote. It Is reported that a few disappointed per­ sons are endeavoring to organize a "still hunt'Mn favor of an opposition ticket, relying upon the over*confi- detice and apathy of the Republicans at this busy season of the ye ir. It Is earnestly hoped that every Re­ publican will make it a matter of duty to gl,ve a part of the day to the elec­ tion. It only occurs once in six years, and It really the most important elec­ tion we have. Let there be a full vote, and thus avoid all danger of defeat In IMS Strong Republican district.

Prom the l.lbertyvtlle Times, May" it 18 IT % MVRDKBT There is great excitement In the vil­ lage ovsr the murder or suicide of August Roslne, the faithful employe of Hon. A. B. Cooke, whose body was found iu Butler's Lake last evening, and at this time the Inquest Is still In progress. The particulars as far as known np to this time are as follows: Rosine was at the Fisher House to sup­ per as usual on Monday evening, and was In bis usual health and spirits. He spent part ef the evening with Mr. Howelky and some friends of his and started for home about 9 o'clock. Not appearing in |be morning It was sup* posed he had gone to Chicago, but get­ ting alarmed Mr. Fisher went over, forced the wiuodw open but found no trace of him. On Wednesday morning he sent a telegram to Mr. Cook, who responded to the effect that he was not there wheu other search was made In the building and blood was found on the door knobs, on the floor and stair­ way, also marks of some one on the roof and also of having the upstair window opened, a bracket shelf under the window was also broker, and heel- marks on it showed that it was broken by sotne one stepping on It. Along towards evening Mr. E. W. Park hurst took a boat and rowed out on the lake to Investigate a dark object that had attracted the attention of some parties working on the bank ef the lake during the day, which object proved to be the body of the missing man. He was towed In and moyed to Mr. Coek's ressdence, the coroner being telegrsphed for promptly responded* and in a short time was on the spot aud summoned F. P. Raymond, C. P. Fisher, Ed. Saunter, Mr. North, Mr. Miller and James Reynolds, as jurors, who after looking at the body adjourn ed until this morning, On making an examination of the clothes of the deceased a small wallet was found containing #950 In bills, 9130 in gold and 50 cents In silver . On examining his room )79,49 cents more were found, and notes to the amount of $2,300, and with one exception all held by Chicago parties. Public opinion seems to be divided on the matter, some claiming suicide, but the majority of those who ever saw a drowned person are satisfied that life was extinct before he ever saw the water. The deceased was a native of Lauenburg, Germany, was about 48 years of age, has been In this oountry about fifteen years and has worked most of that time for Mr. Cook. He ba6 no relatives In this country and but very few acquaintances. It Is reported that he has some brothers and sisters in Germany. Mr. Cook is here and Is determined to sift the matter to the bottom in which all good citizens ought to assist bim as there have been too many mys terious deaths, murders and disap­ pearances of late. LATER:--In the Chicago Daily News of Monday we find the following later particulars: Ex-Aid. A. B. Cook said last niffrt that he was mere than ever convinced that August Roslne, who had charge or Mr. Cook's Liberty vllle farm was murdered. When the body was round In the water or Butler's lake on Wednes lay afternoon there was very little water In the stomach, the Inngs were filled with air, and there was no coagulated blood. Mr. Cook has con­ sulted a number of professors la the medical colleges, and they agree in de­ claring that it could not have been a sulfide. Rosine, they say, must have been dead, and even rigor mortis set in before the body was placed In the lake. There are three boats on the lake, two of which are kept locked up. The third boat, which will hold half a dezen or more persons, was afterward found on another side of the lake, having evidently drirted there. In a swampy place on the shore were found the tracks of several men leading away from the lake. It Is thought that this is the place where the boat was turned adrift. Mr. Cook Is certain that Roslne had about 92,000 in his possession which is not yet accounted for. He thinks it unfortunate that the two witnesses (both Germans, who do not speak Eng­ lish) should have been examined by the coroner of Lake county In each niter's presence.

Wednesday evening, May 13th, 1885, occurred the marriage of George E, Manor to Miss Mamie E. Martin, or Cheshtre, Mass., at the residence of Henry Earle, Rev. J. Currer officiating. About forty Invited guests were pres­ ent. At eight o'clock, as Mrs. Earle played the wedding march, the bridal couple made their appearanoe, accom­ panied by Miss Nellie Andrews and Mies Ibble Rowe, when the marriage rites were consummated. Congratula­ tions were then In order, after which all repaired to the dining room to par­ take of the bountiful supper prepared by the hostess. The happy couple started Thursday moruiug for Chicago, returning Friday night to Genoa, where their ruture home will be. The bride has been with us two years, galnlug many friends during that time.
